Brand new, direct from Great Eastern Cutlery, USA.

Blade: Polished satin finished 1095 carbon steel is delivered in an iconic clip point profile often found on larger hunting knives. The clip point is still versatile in this smaller daily carry size, with solid piercing performance and good slicing thanks to a full flat grind and thin blade stock and smooth opening via the long pull nail groove. A great choice for detail work of fine cutting tasks, the Tascosa is capable of heavier work thanks to the lock back construction.

Handle: Built with traditional brass liner and pin construction, the compact handle sports polished and grooved nickel silver bolsters and rugged Sambar Stag covers sans shield to showcase the natural texture. The handle offers a solid grip and has a hollow brass pin for lanyard attachment. The full length back spring protects the blade when closed and forms the lock back mechanism for safe, secure use.

1095 Carbon Steel: Popular, simple carbon steel used extensively by production and custom knife makers. Low abrasive wear (edge retention) due to low carbide content and easy to sharpen to a fine edge. Not corrosion resistant and will rust without proper care.
